Zoodiacs Afghan

"This Zoodiacs Afghan is a collection of corner to corner crochet squares depicting the 12 animals in the Chinese Zodiac. Each square is about 18 inches big, so the afghan is quite large, around 5ft by 7ft. It requires several colors of yarn, and the link includes a list of recommended supplies/colors, video tutorials, instructions, and of course, the 12 animal graphs. I've also included a quick corner to corner tutorial for those who want to learn this fun technique!"
